Voila!

I for one am a big fan of both Magic and D&D, and dabble in converting what I can to the game whenever I can. However, there is a great deal of material to convert, and I don't know if I'll ever get something significant enough to contribute to a campaign. I was wondering if perhaps I could enlist the help of people here to finding creatures existant in D&D that are similar to those in Magic, thus making it a little easier to get by. For instance, there is a race of reptilian humanioids known as viashino (http://gatherer.wizards.com/?first=1&last=100&term=viashino&Field_Name=on&Field_Rules=on&Field_Type=on&setfilter=Allsets&colorfilter=All&typefilter=All&output=summary&sort=name&x=0&y=0), that so far exist in the worlds of Dominaria and the planar metropolis of Ravnica. They could be represented by tweaking lizardfolk stats, or perhaps troglodyte stats. I haven't been through every book, though I have been through most, and I wouldn't mind some close comparisons to save some work.
